The type of internet-war between individuals which grows out of quickly-written emails containing statements that may be easily misunderstood or mis-taken by the recepient, and grows through retaliatory responses into massive proportions.
Since email is unable to convey facial-expressions, unable to fully-convey emotive states or the status of the writer (ie tired, sick, depressed), is not interactive face-to-face dialog, and tends to be hastily-written, these misunderstandings via email are frequently based entirely upon mis-communication rather than truthful intent.
Term coined by Louise Doncaster circa 2003.

Person #1 states how they were ripped off by a third-party. Person #2 replies, "oh well that's what you get," meaning that's what you get when you deal with people like the third-party. Person #1 misunderstands the statement to mean that they deserved to be ripped off, or that Person #2 is flipping them off about their upset feelings of being ripped-off.

This is a variation of the dap that can be used when you would like to give a physical dap, such as to congratulate your friend on something great they did or are doing, but you are communicating in a manner that makes a physical dap unfeasible, usually electronic, e.g. email, chat, or sms. (See dap.)

The electronic telepathic force wherein you and your partner think, text, or virtually speak of the same concept or word without realizing you both were doing so, even while living miles away. The stronger the force, the stronger the E-Pathic bond becomes.
